Normandy Farm Artisan Bakery

Despite the laid-back surfer-dude attitude of the guys at Normandy Farm, the place runs like clockwork, and it's one of the most esteemed bakeries in the Holy City. The storefront in the back of the hippie-happy Windermere Shopping Center is bright and welcoming, marked by a mural covering one wall. There they sell a huge range of products, including artisan breads, sandwiches, quiches, bagels, scones, pastries, and more. They also make wedding cakes to order. But their biggest moneymaker is in the wholesale market. This little bakery provides fresh, crusty bread to many of the finest restaurants in Charleston. And if the restaurants are willing to admit they didn't make it themselves, they usually brag about the fact that it's from Normandy Farm.
